[diyawary]

Hi Team,

Please help to identify the hardware requirements for installation of prometheus ,I am planning to install it on linux

like how many cpu cores.

     memory (RAM)

    storage 

Thanks in advanced

There is no simple answer.

It depends how many targets you are wanting to scrape, how often and how
many metrics are returned. Additionally the amount of queries being
performed and any additional tools on the same box (e.g. remove
read/write tools, blackbox exporter, SNMP exporter, etc.) will affect
requirements too.
